General Tours
|
Founded in 1947, General Tours is one of the oldest and most experienced tour companies in the United States. The company's guiding philosophy originated at the Geneva Peace Conference following the Second World War with a mission to build bridges of understanding between North America and Eastern Europe. Since the day this vision was conceived, more than one million travelers have participated in General Tours' programs.
Today, General Tours offers land vacations and river cruises in many of the world's most fascinating destinations. Itineraries are created based on two primary objectives - choice and value. Accommodations, guided sightseeing, some meals and transportation are included in the price of your tour. In addition, an experienced guide leads your group, pointing out must-see sights and suggesting activities you might consider during allotted free time.
General often combines a river cruise and a land tour to deliver a well-rounded experience in each destination.
- General Tours offers river cruises in Europe, Russia, Egypt, China and Brazil.
- River cruises are rated according to the quality of the vessel and its accommodations, the number of included amenities and activities both on and off the ship, the class of hotels used for land portions of itineraries, and the level of service delivered. General Tours river cruises are categorized as deluxe on the industry rating scale (budget, first class and deluxe).
